I have good news, and better news!
The good news:
My first set(s) of knobs came today, and I ordered 3 more sets, so I'll have a total of 10 of these knobs.
The better news:
These "All Parts" knobs are the EXACT SAME 3 PIECE KNOBS!! Even the orientation of the cap holes are the same to the numbers!
I took an "F" cap off an old Fender knob, and they fit right on the All Parts knobs! How cool is that!?
Sorry for the cr@p pics...This pic shows the 4 new knobs I got, with one knob dis assembled.
This pic shows a New All Parts knob with an old F cap on it!
This pic shows the orientation of the cap to the numbers. EXACTLY the same as the old knobs!

I know, right!
Fresh "F" knobs coming soon for all that are missing them!
I just hope my "replicas" match, next to a couple originals.

Fantastic! And well done to mrfist for spotting those, can't believe they're identical. And to think people are paying $30 each for them on ebay, they'll be kicking themselves if they find out! ;D If I EVER get an HM and it needs knobs (pretty likely from what I've seen so far) Bo, you'll be hearing from me!

Yes, hat's off to mrfist. Also, thanks to tucs for sharing the high quality image of the "F".
I'd love to fetch $30 each for a few of these $4 knobs!

Where do you think Fist gets all his HM ideas? LOL
Just joshin' around. Maybe he thought of it independently, but Jim says not likely.
I keed, I keed. ;D

If this forum were a sitcom, El Beast would be the whacky next door neighbor who's secretly a genius. If it were a movie, Bo would be the Doc character in the Back to the Future movies, concocting all this insanely cool stuff in his lab.

You are truly GOD of all things HM!I bow... Sarcasm Detector Sounding a Major Alert! If this forum were a sitcom, El Beast would be the whacky next door neighbor who's secretly a genius. As long as I'm not determined to be a racist a decade later.
Take everything I say with a little......and not with...

Bo,
I'm not sure knowing everything about HMs is a compliment. Instead it may be a sign of an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
It's good to hear you were not being sarcastic seeing as your are now GOD of the Board! I wouldn't want GOD belittling me. LOL
Jim's quite the prankster himself with the member titles.
Jim,
How 'bout new titles for everyone...on the house! ;DAttachments:

I wish I could take credit for that, El Beast! But it wasn't me.
